Posted: Wednesday, April 4, 2012 1:00 pm

The deadline for applying for the Loewenberg School of Nursing’s Basic BSN Program for the fall 2012 semester at the University of Memphis Lambuth Campus has been extended to May 1. 
The extension applies to the Basic BSN program on the Lambuth Campus only.
Interested applicants can find an application for the Basic BSN program at the Lambuth Campus on the nursing school’s website, www.memphis.edu/nursing/index.php.
The U of M Lambuth Campus will implement the Basic BSN Program beginning with the fall 2012 semester.
The RN-BSN Program, a hybrid educational model that includes online and traditional classes, is already being offered at the Lambuth Campus. RN-BSN classes, which began at U of M Lambuth in spring 2012, are for diploma and associate degree-prepared RNs who want to earn the BSN degree.
With renovations to the U of M Lambuth campus, the Hyde Science Building will house state-of-the-art nursing classrooms, skills, and simulation laboratories that facilitate a first-rate learning environment for students taught by high-quality faculty. 
“The addition of LSON nursing to the U of M Lambuth Campus will increase the number of BSN-prepared nurses available to meet the needs of the Jackson area and the surrounding regional communities,” said Dr. Linda Finch, associate dean and associate professor in the Loewenberg School of Nursing.
More information is available from Sheila Hall, assistant dean for admissions for the Loewenberg School of Nursing, at shall@memphis.edu or (901) 678-2003, or from Linda Finch at lfinch@memphis.edu or (901) 678-3097.
